Do all pads make noise when they need to be replaced or just certain vehicles?
I got over 100k on a set of pads and still haven't had to replace them. I remember on older cars having to change them much more often.

Did you stop by just slamming into whatever was in front of you?

True about what the poster asked above. You wear them out much quicker if you're constantly starting and then slamming on the brakes. Plus now days they are making some more durable. And yes they can be worn and for some reason may not hear the noise, which you should be able to. But you can always look at your rotors to check for any grooves from old pads. You want the rotors to be smooth all the way around.
